[Albion] David Weir - Loan Manager

[Perry Milkins]

In what way is it weird? The recruitment team are very busy sending out scouts, not just negotiating with players that we'd like.
Loans are valuable to fringe players like Norwood, Ince, etc who want to keep playing, especially to find new clubs, and youngsters coming through who may or may not have the qualities to make it in the Premier League, but could be good players at a lower level.
I'm not sure how many people Paul Winstanley has in his team, but someone who is dedicated to watching and liaising with loan players sounds like a good asset, imo.

Weir -Weird.....??

It’s a weird appointment.

Not remotely weird IMO....we'll have more and more out on loan as the Academy produces, makes perfect sense to have someone responsible for overseeing and supporting all those out on loan, watching what they're doing, making sure the loanee club is doing the right thing and giving CH and team feedback.

Can I get in first and suggest a nickname...." Tonto "....( the older ones amongst us will work it out )

A major UK bank used to do loan quotes on a platform called Tonto !

TRIGGER ALERT: Millennial snowflakes may care to seek refuge in their safe space before this video is aired.

'Originally released as a single in 1976, the BBC banned it due to the drug and homosexual references. However, thanks to Kenny Everett, the song received a lot of airplay on his TV & radio shows, and was re-released in 1979.'

Sample lyrics:

'He smoke pipe of peace with Tonto
Put his mask on back to fronto
Tonto fall about with laughter
He a head our great white brother'

We'll draw a discrete veil over the next verse...

What else can I say other than It Was Acceptable In The Seventies. And funny as ****. Er, at the time. Obviously

Could have been ideal for Calderon

If he had wanted it. Besides I am under the impression that he wants to continue palying for as long as he possibly can.
